Jhene Aiko Performs ‘The Worst’ on ‘Ellen’ [VIDEO]

R&B songstress Jhene Aiko has been generating a lot of buzz for her upcoming debut album, 'Souled Out.' From her performance on the Boombox's Live Bytes to her appearance at Coachella (with friend Drake), the California native is ready to shine.

On Monday (May 26), Aiko performed her 'Sail Out' single 'The Worst' on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show.' Despite the song being a few months old, the tune still sounds fresh whenever she performs it live.

The 26-year-old artist was looking very summery in her pink top and flowing dress with a long slit that revealed her slender leg.

Backed by a band that included a section of string players, the barefoot Aiko mesmerized the crowd as she sang her aching lyrics and head-bopped to the soulful groove provided by her musicians.

During Ellen's introduction of Aiko, she told the crowd that "she loves her so much."
